WEBVTT JENNIFER: IT IS TIME FOR 11 FITNESS WITH CHARLES. YOU WILL TALK ABOUT BATHING SUIT BODY READY WORKOUTS. DO YOU BUY IT BEFORE OR AFTER? JENNIFER: I'M THINKING AFTER. IN THAT CASE WE WILL START WITH FOR MEN AND WOMEN OF COURSE. WOMEN DEAL WITH A LOT F OF BIKINI ISSUES AND YOU CAN USE A BARTA THEY HAVE AT WAL-MART, STORES LIKE THAT. I GOT THIS FROM THE GYM THIS MORNING. YOU CAN START ON THE STABILITY BALL AND EXTEND BACK WITH THE WIDE GRIP. THAT WILL WORK THE ARMPITS BETTER. JENNIFER: IS THAT WORKING HERE? YES. TRICEPS AS WELL BUT I WILL CONCENTRATE ON THE PECTORAL MUSCLES. YOU DON'T WANT TO GO THAT FAR. IT IS TOO MUCH STRESS ON THE JOINTS. GO PARALLEL TO THE FLOOR AND COME UP. FOR GUYS YOU CAN HIT THE ABS. ELEVATE AND WORK THE ABDOMINAL MUSCLES. JENNIFER: CAN'T THE GIRLS DO THE ABS. MEN HAVE DIFFERENT ISSUES. SO GO BACK WITH THE ARMS, LIFT UP, AND DOWN. NOW, FOR THE GLUTES, YOU CAN PUT THIS BAR HERE, COME OUT A LITTLE MORE AND ELEVATE UP WITH THE CHEEKS AND DOWN AND UP. I WOULD DO 30 OF THESE, TWO SETS. YOU CAN FEEL THIS IN THE GLUTES. SQUEEZE UP TOP. SQUEEZE UP TOP AND DOWN. THEN HOLD THE BAR. JENNIFER: THAT IS 20 POUNDS. YOU DON'T NEED A LOT OF WEIGHT TO GET THE RESULTS. IT IS ALL ABOUT FORM AND REPETITION. JENNIFER: ARE YOU GOING TO DO THE BELLY BALL FOR CLEAR PATH -- TORTURE PATH? NO. WINDSHIELD WAOEURPBS WE CALL THEM FOR THE OBLIQUES. GO DOWN AND IN THE MIDDLE AND COME UP , DOWN. SIDE. OBLIQUE. LOVE HANDLES. OBLIQUES. LOWER ABDOMINALS. PAUSE AND HOLD. SQUEEZE A LITTLE. COME UP. PELVIC TILT. JENNIFER: MOST OF THOSE YOUR HEAD WAS ELEVATED. IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT? NOT NECESSARILY. TOO MUCH STRESS ON THE NECK. I'M JUST TALKING RIGHT NOW BUT THAT IS A GOOD POINT. LAY THE HEAD DOWN SO YOU DON'T PUT A LOT OF STRESS ON YOUR NECK. YOU HAVE BECOME A GOOD TRAINER. JENNIFER: I LEARN FROM YOU ALL THE TIME. THIS IS A ROLL OUT AND WORKING ABS, CORE TRAINING. COME OUT LIKE THIS. DO PUSH-UPS. BOOM, BOOM. AND THE BOOM IS REALLY NECESSARY. YOU HAVE TO SAY THAT. COME UP. STRAIGHT. ONE MORE TIME. BOOM, BAM, BOOM, COME DOWN. JENNIFER: IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE WITH PUSH-UPS THAT BALL IS A LIFE SAVER BECAUSE IT BALANCES YOU. YOU CAN WEAN YOURSELF OFF THE BALL. THIS IS A GOOD CORE EXERCISE. YOU CAN DO 100 OR MORE REPUTATIONS ON EACH SIDE. IT IS A REALLY GOOD NONTHREATENING TOOL THAT YOU CAN HAVE AT HOME. JENNIFER: YOU CAN USE A PILLOW FOR SOME OF THESE IN BETWEEN YOUR LEGS. CHECK OUT CHARLES'S WEBSITE OR
